Have any of you guys ever gotten Madcatz Store stuff to ship to Canada?
I'm trying to order the Guilty Gear Xrd arcade stick. It says they ship to Canada but it won't accept my postal code (Downtown Toronto). Tried my old Saskatchewan postal code out of curiousity and it won't take that either.

Damn those deals aren't bad. I'd bite on last of us for $15. Probably pick up evil within too.
Nevermind thought last of us was PS4 version.

Some more info:
The Evil Within 30$
Alien Isolation 30$
Second Son 15$
Killzone 15$
Watch Dog 19.99$
The 30$ and 15$ categories mention "and more", who knows which games that will be.

I've wanted The Evil Within since it released, but couldn't bring myself to spend $70 on it. $30 is more than cheap enough for me, so I'm glad to see it on sale too.
Yeah, I wonder if we'll get a list before BF. But I assume the more popular products are the ones they show, so the rest might be less enticing/lower quality games.

Is this the only Canadian Black Friday flyer that has been released so far?

Yeah, Sony said as much on the PS blog. No real BF deals for PS4 this year, unfortunately.

Infamous for $15 is a steal.

Thanks! Nothing for me, but I am confused why the PS3 version of Sleeping Dogs is on sale for $30, did they mean to put the Definitive Edition there but screwed up the box art?
Hibiki Kurosawa

Good catch, that doesn't sound right. They must have meant the definitive edition. There's no way the PS3 version of Sleeping Dogs is more than $20 regular price, let alone $30 on sale.

Is Alien Isolation good?
Byron Bluth
Banned
Very damn good! So long as you don't mind a challenge and can understand that the Alien is not on a pre-determined path but governed by a dynamic AI system. Meaning if he killed you in one spot and you expect him to show up there when you reload, you won't be right, so trial and error does not work.
It is a damn good survival game.

Future Shop has a Smash steelbook and you can get a select game for $5.
So basically $70+tax for Smash, a steelbook, and one of ZombiU/AC3.

I was hesitant to pick it up and now it's on my game of the year list.

I went to I think 7-8 stores in Toronto. A LOT of controllers and amiibo's. Absolutely ZERO adapters. Understocked I guess? I managed to get one from a local store but they said they didn't get many either. I'd imagine if you're in a highly populated area the major retailers were cleaned out either in the morning or last night.
The amiibo's I've seen all look alright, but dear god all of the Marth's I've seen look like fucking shit. That was the only one I wanted to get as well. I wasn't that sold on amiibo's but I was interested in getting at least one. Guess I'll wait for Shulk then. Nintendo Seal of QUALITY
Got it for my friends bday and he's enjoying it.
$30 for Sleeping Dogs PS3? I could have sworn I saw a copy of that in their clearance bin for $7. Probably meant the PS4 version.
Total gamechanger!

Yeah, they had Sleeping Dogs for PS3/360 for $9 in the summer during their big clearance.
Thanks for the hookups! Big savings on the E3 deal. (Also reposted for the new page!)

This Gamecube Controller Adapter is proving obnoxious as hell to find, Future Shop even ignored the in store reservation I put in last night. Anyone in Vancouver have any luck?
Gonna have to hit up Target early. Stockyards will be a massacre gentlemen. Anyone see Amiibo selection at Stockyards Target, BB, FS, or Wal-Mart?

Huh. A friend of mine actually pre-ordered the adapter from EB Games... And then they sold his pre-order adapter at the midnight release. I don't think he was too happy

Same here, I sent a ISP to BB for the game, another game and an Amiibo at 9AM but I've yet to receive an answer. Relieved to see that "I'm not the only one"...

I ... forgot to update the address on my order... but it hasn't been delivered yet. Can I call Canada Post about this?

Must be your region. My flyer shows the Xbox One deal on the front page of the flyer with TVs.

Where in the world are you people finding adapters?!
EB games delisted the adapter bundle. I can't seem to find it anywhere on the site: https://www.facebook.com/274208315998/posts/10152661793105999
Sorta on the fence. Should I buy the adapter if I find it?

Thanks! Now I can return my Best Buy "deal" when it arrives.
My Smash came today, despite the order being unavailable. I still can't check the order, which has Xenoblade and SMTxFE on it, so it better fix itself.
Advise me GAF, when/where should I get a PS4?
I can wait until next Friday and try to get a Black Friday bundle BUT I don't want to play GTAV, TLoU, LBP3 or Lego Batman. I could get a bundle and try to sell the games though, I'm sure I could get around $70 after selling both GTAV and TLoU and probably a little less for LBP3 and Lego Batman.
Conversely.
I could try and get a PS4 tomorrow from shoppers that comes with just one game (assuming TLoU), and get a $75 gift card. I can sell TLoU and the $75 can go towards household items/future game deals/chocolate milk. There would also be a good chunk of optimum points coming with it too.
I'm leaning towards Shoppers.
